~ Hitler explaining his movie during the audition in The New Colossus. |
Adolf Hitler is one of the two overarching antagonists (alongside Rip Blazkowicz) of the Wolfenstein franchise.
He was the leader of the Nazi Party and Germany as a whole, which allowed major antagonists such as Deathshead to take power, making him responsible of most evil the Nazis had done.
He was voiced by Norbert Weisser, who also portrayed Peter Schuler in Breaking Bad.
History[]
Wolfenstein 3D[]
Hitler appears as the final boss of the game, as Mecha-Hitler. He fights the player in a mecha suit equipped with Gatling guns on either side. After his mecha suit is destroyed, Hitler continues fighting the player until he is disintegrated, letting out "Auf Wiedersehen" before his demise.
Wolfenstein: The New Order[]
While a "Fuhrer" is mentioned in several newspaper clippings, Hitler makes no appearances in the game, and the main antagonist is General Wilhelm Strasse. However, a gold mask resembling an impression of Hitler's face can be found on the moon base as a collectible
Wolfenstein: The New Colossus[]
Hitler is revealed to be alive at Venus in this game, where he is producing a movie that features him defeating B.J. in a mech suit. He has Lady Helene bring four actors to audition for the role of B.J. (one of whom is ironically B.J. in disguise as an actor named "Jules Redfield"). During the audition, Hitler kills one of the actors out of paranoia he is a Jewish spy and later executes another for delivering an underwhelming performance. He eventually approves B.J. for the role after he becomes impressed at him killing a volunteer soldier, oblivious to his true identity.
Wolfenstein: Youngblood[]
Hitler does not appear in the game, but BJ Blazkowicz killed him, and his death caused an Apocalypse doomsday device that could manipulate the weather.
Personality[]
By the time of The New Colossus, Hitler has become frail and senile. He appears to have gotten increasingly more paranoid due to his deteriorated mental state, going on a mad rant about Jewish spies in the middle of the audition and executing one of the auditioning actors out of suspicion he is a Jew. He is shown to have a very slim grasp on reality, mistaking Helene for his mother, Klara, at one point. His delusions even seem to have caused him to believe that the version of events depicted in his movie where he kills B.J. is the truth.

Trivia[]
- Due to Germany's laws against Nazi imagery in video games, Hitler in The New Colossus is instead replaced with "Kanzler Heiler", who resembles Hitler's appearance in that game without his mustache.
- The Super Nintendo port of Wolfenstein 3D, which was censored with Germany in mind,[1] renames Hitler to "Staatmeister", who also resembles the dictator albeit lacking his mustache.
- A scene from The New Colossus, in which Hitler shoots and kills a young Ronald Reagan after the latter says, "I'm from Arizona," has become a popular internet meme due to its absurd nature when taken out of context.
